A while back one of my granddaughters got married. I found out recently that near my 57th birthday in August I could be a great-grandfather.......Now folks.........I'm really feeling old! I mean old as dirt.....Great grandfather..........WOW!

Ken,
Take solace in this; dirt is a lot younger than rock.

Awwww Ken.....you ain't old until you reach 100 years old. You've still got a long way to go buddy. Now....let's see....how many bonkers can a Great Grandfather turn between now and when the baby is born.?? :confused: :eek: :D

Ken, just because you were shipmates with John Paul Jones doesn't make you old, just experienced.

Ken, Greatgrand father at 56 and then you blink your eyes a couple of times and 8 years are gone. Enjoy all you can.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!, I have been a GGF for 4 years now, and it is wonderful. Don't take it as feeling old, consider yourself blessed, it is a great feeling, I never knew my GGM or GGF, and I intend to make sure my two GGD's know me and will remember me. ONe is four now and the other is 20 months. Both are a joy to see and a pleasure to be with.

Congratulations Ken. While I've got a couple of years on you, I don't have any great grandkids. Can you turn a crib? If not you'd better start honing your flat lander skills again. :D

I became a GF in my late 40's and thought I was too young. But its an enjoyable time. You appreciate those grandkids more the older you get. Maybe that's the mellowing process..:) :)
